TP stands for Team Preview. It lets you choose if you want to see the opponent’s team and let the opponent see yours.

A lot of people use Mega Absol because they either don’t have the money/BP to get a different Mega Stone or they think it’s really good (only good with the proper usage, moveset and training). I’ve seen some Absol with Savage Spin-Out lately, but it’s not as common as Mega Absol.
